Is UK the only country in europe where employers ask for your current salary? On job application, it is frequently mentioned and it is compulsory to fill it in. Plus recruiters like to ask about it. Do you tell them what you are earning now? I believe salary should be based on my capabilities not my previous comp.

You can just put your salary expectations - you don’t have to put it

Just put your expectations? They won’t ask for actual proof

like

Also, your employment reference only includes dates of employment not salary so there is no downside in putting your expectation or some otherwise inflated figure to guide your offer. No point putting in a low number, doing a load of interviews, then getting an offer you know you’ll reject as too low. That wastes everybody’s time

Yes. I put a nice number in the expected salary blank, yet current salary is a must-fill space

Do Leidos, SAIC, and other mostly-fed consulting businesses pay bonuses to all levels? If so, what does a typical bonus target look like? Booz Allen does not pay bonuses until you get to the Senior Associate level (1 step below Director) and I think that impacts employee performance and work ethic pretty dramatically. I’m wondering if not paying bonuses is common to federal contracting because of how the contracts or priced, or if this is something unique to Booz Allen.

Currently going through some negations on an internal role. I’m currently at 88k and they offered me 100k for a position that requires a lot more work. Do you guys think it’s easier to land a higher salary when applying externally rather than internally? Also this is for a territory sales management role. They stated 120k+ is extremely high for that role. What do you guys think? Playing the game?
